LET'S CONNECT

HELLO!

I'm Danelle

"LET ME TAKE CARE OF THE LEGALITIES FOR YOU, SO THAT YOU CAN BE FULLY IN YOUR ZONE OF GENIUS."

Danelle Harvey-Jacob, Esq. LL.M. MSc.

Hello! I'm the Founder and Principal Attorney at Harvey-Jacob Law, a California virtual law firm to entrepreneurs.

I'm a woman of faith and honored to be a mother, nan, sister, overcomer, and entrepreneur. Prior to law, I was actively in business for over 3 decades as a business owner, best-selling business author, speaker, published composer, and educator. I built businesses from scratch and zero budget on and offline operating internationally, whilst raising my daughter.

By no means was any of it easy! I started this law office using principles learned in business and taught to consulting clients over the years, which include customizing the business to align with the owner's aims, so they can succeed on their own terms. For example, serving clients well and building a dream life whilst respecting and protecting (not sacrificing) their mind, body, spirit, and soul. I truly believe that building a dream business with a healthy attitude enables us to take care of what's important. For me, aside from running my business and serving my clients, this looks like prioritizing God, my health, enjoying spending time with loved ones, extra-curricular activities, and making a positive difference in the world - including by giving back and paying it forward.

I understand business law, and I truly understand entrepreneurship! I learned the hard way and I'm passionate about helping others avoid unnecessary setbacks. My mission is to empower business owners to take informed action so that they not only succeed, but also thrive, by exiting their "Egypt", overcoming and conquering to experience their "Promised Land", and building a lasting legacy in line with Proverbs 13:22, leaving an inheritance to their children's children.

If this speaks to you, it'd be wonderful to connect.

Here's to your success!

All the best,

"I was able to understand the process, and it was explained to me without making me feel inferior. I really appreciate the detail."

"Felt heard and felt you were definitely in my corner and advocating legally for me"

"I feel that Danelle has the skills, the will to fight for, and to protect my family's rights to build generational wealth to honor my mother's legacy. -S.E.D."
